Why I love it: I’ve been using this whole set for the past few weeks and have fallen in love with the Grown Alchemy brand – everything is gentle, works wonderfully well, and is ingredient-conscious, too. If you haven’t sampled it yet – I highly recommend it!

Why I love it: I’ve been reviewing the women’s Yogi Surprise box for a while now, so I decided to review the men’s box just out of curiosity. I found the August box to be pretty unisex, thanks in part to products like this great natural deodorant. Not only is it doing a nice job curtailing my summertime sweat, but as someone who tends towards woodsier, more traditionally “masculine” scents in perfumes, candles, etc., I found this formula’s combo of cedarwood, vanilla, sandalwood, and mandarin sooo dreamy.

Why I love it: Assembling this flower crown was a really fun, relaxing craft. The whole project only took me about 25 minutes to complete, which was a good warmup for someone who isn’t used to letting her creative juices flow. I enjoyed stepping out of my comfort zone and warming up the hot glue gun to put this pastel beauty together.

Why I love it: This product combines one of my favorite brands (Sunday Riley) with one of my favorite subscription box items (full-size skincare!). The Martian line from Sunday Riley is a godsend for my natural red, oily, acne-prone skin, and it really helps me keep the grease at bay without irritating my skin.

Why I Picked It: This is honestly one of the best sugar scrubs I’ve ever used! The lavender smell is super rich and I love that the texture is more “dry” out of the jar, letting you mix in just the right amount of water before you scrub. It also seems much more hydrating than scrubs I’ve used before and a little bit goes a long way.

Why I love it: I’m all about taking notes and making to-do-list, and this “Check It Off Notes & To Do’s notepad is perfect for me. I have plenty of room to take notes and little check boxes to check off my to-do lists. This notepad is a must-have for those who like me live for to-do lists.

Why I love it: I am a big fan of reusable items for everyday things- nursing pads, cloth diapers, etc. and this is something I didn’t even know existed. I use disposable cotton rounds almost nightly for makeup removal so finding out there was a version that was softer, more effective and also a greener option was awesome. These felt so incredibly soft and gentle on my skin! I also love that they come from a small business on Etsy; I’m always happy to see a box support those, but I was so sad to find that these only ship to Canada. Luckily, I have had lots of helpful reader suggestions for finding more!

The Item: Buckles loved everything in the August Barkbox, but his favorite in the box was the Three-toed Monte

Why he loves it: Buckles has been eating the treats and tore through the dental chew from Barkbox this month. On top of that – he loves the toys, especially Three-toed Monte!

Why I love it: I’m a sucker for all-things Rick and Morty, so naturally, I love the exclusive Morty Monster Mayhem figure – it’s probably the best Rick and Morty figure I’ve received in a subscription so far!

Liz is the founder of My Subscription Addiction. She’s been hooked on subscription boxes since 2011 thanks to Birchbox, and she now subscribes to over 100 boxes. Her favorites include POPSUGAR Must Have, FabFitFun, and any box that features natural beauty products!

I love seeing these posts every month because it’s a good summary and alot of times I find something I missed in the many reviews….but I think we can all agree the highlights here are the kitties in dresses and puppy wearing a crown. 🙂 And I giggle with excitement every time I see that Buckles gets a monthly pick too.
